The thing I have noticed is most blacks have an Urban attitude about crime: “It’s none of my business.” That’s their big hangup about GZ getting out of his car to watch and see what this stranger was up to. “Was he bothering GZ? Then it was none of business.” and “He deserved an *ss-whoopin for not minding his own business.” Black people do not get involved. They do not help the police. They do not call the police unless something involves them personally. That’s why so many black people simply can not wrap their heads around the idea of a man stopping and getting out of his car to look investigate something or someone suspicious. You just don’t do that. To them that is just strange and indicates something is wrong with a person who would do that.
This is different from a Rural attitude. People notice things are out of place and wonder what’s up. They’ll even stop to say ‘Hi’ to a stranger and casually mine for info about what this person is doing around their neighbor’s place. Or they might call the police and say they keep seeing a strange car driving around.
As I have heard Trayvon’s parents say time and time again, they are not only fighting for justice for their son, they are fighting for all of us,..................... “U$” mainly in the 1st person plural. Wait till George gets his millions in settlement from the MSM, Trayvon’s mom is really going to have a $chitfit. IMHO, its not a case of denial by the parents, its a case of how much $$$$ can I get out of it.
All we ever asked for was for equal justice for the young man who was killed that drizzling night in Sanford, Florida. If George Zimmerman had rights, so did Trayvon Martin. And that is why Mr. Zimmerman was properly arrested and charged with murder in the second degree. He will soon be judged by a jury of his peers, and that is the best we can do.
And this is what I have been saying lately. If you go back in time to when this fecal matter first hit the oscillating rotatory device that is the twitterverse - the cause celebre was that there was no fact finding process - that the optics were such that the cracker white PD let the cracker white shooter waltz out of there no questions asked.
Of course, in time, it’s morphed into a replay as farce of the OJ trial with much invested in the outcome of the process - not that there was in fact a process.
I say mixed in with some of the obligatory race pimp rhetoric that there is a kernel of wisdom (or a dose of reality - take your pick) in these comments.
At the very beginning the outrage in the “community” was that no arrest was made and no charges filed.
Well an arrest *was* made, charges *were* filed, and in fact the trial is about to conclude.
The voice of reason would conclude that this is what was required at the outset - everyone got their day in court.
My fear is that all of this gets lost in the whole “yay for our side, bronx cheer for yours” that our domestic politics has descended into.
Justice came when he was shot by an armed citizen protecting himself from a wannabe gangsta.
Wait one damn minute. Just last week Trayvon’s momma, daddy and Daryl Parks said that this was never about race!
One does not need to be a weatherman to know which way the wind blows. Bite me, Russell.
LOL! Quite a long statement for a rapper. I notice at no
time does he ask for no violence, which in and of itself is
a dogwhistle. You know they want it.
You could have him job swap with Holder and not miss a beat..
Mother of Trayvon Martin Files Paperwork To Trademark Dead Son’s Name…

Trayvon assaulted Z. He got killed trying to kill another man.
Didn’t some celeb tweet Zimmerman’s address and it turned out to be the wrong address. Was it Simmons?
Sweating to the Oldies has damaged his brain..
Now we get civics lessons from a guy who makes millions off of hip hop. Thank you, Mr. Simmons, for cheapening black culture.
So says a thuggish hip hop producer.
If there is karma, it’s gonna bite Russell’s butt sooner than Zimmerman’s.
accomplished a tremendous amount in the memory of Trayvon.
Yes we sure did lets see
arrest record
pot smoker
gang member

Dead thug about sums it up for me.Yep!
“In 2012, for the first time in 8 years, not ONE state in our nation passed a new “Stand Your Ground” law. The power of the NRA and their gun-toting cronies in business were stopped in their tracks by the Justice For Trayvon Martin movement.”
Ah, the truth comes out. Simmons admits that Trayvon was just being used as cover for a political agenda.
“Their inspiring leadership has already led to action. In 2012, for the first time in 8 years, not ONE state in our nation passed a new “Stand Your Ground” law.”
WTF? Are you picking and choosing your facts or just shading the story?
The fact is, more than 30 states have some form of stand your ground but, that isn’t even the point in this case.
Your obfuscation of the issues and merits notwithstanding.
George Zimmerman was getting his head bounced off concrete and taking a whooping that he, in his moment of fear, thought he was going to lose his life.
When you are on the ground, as evidenced by Zimm’s shirt being wet and having grass stain on the back, you have every right to defend yourself from brain damage or worse, death.
When your life is on the line you can forget Stand Your Ground, which you clearly do not understand, nor do you understand the merits or lacking thereof in this case.
For people like you it’s always about color.
